Silver Liner
This particular silver liner was made with pennies from the birth years of the newly weds to be. There is a silver liner ring covered with a copper ring, the copper contains the aforementioned melted down penny fragments. The silver has a flare on either side which creates a very comfortable fit and a unique detail that makes it stand out from other wedding bands. Thanks for looking and feel free to contact Hans to discuss a custom ring project!

Great service
This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.
I am a 30 year old metalsmith specializing in custom metal fabricating, blacksmithing and jewelry. I wake up every morning breathing ideas in metal. Its such great stuff! I wouldn't have named my new son, Eisen, german for "Iron" if I wasn't sure he'd grow up a blacksmith just like me and love metal like me. No pressure of course, I will let him do whatever he wants.
I pride myself in working with clients to create unique functional art pieces, objects and furniture that can stand alone and make a statement as well as accompany their surroundings to improve the current atmosphere. This can apply to furniture, jewelry and sculpture all the same.
When possible I employ the use of recycled materials and resources to create my custom projects. I feel this is a vital component in creating original work and in many ways contributes to a more unique creation with built in history.
Thank you for visiting and feel free to contact us for more information or to commission a custom creation!

For Six Iron Corbel Shelf Brackets5.0Ordering was very easy, (even with our special request) Hans communicated every step of the process. We received them ahead of schedule and they were even nicer then the pictures portrayed. Quality and precision you only get from a craftsman/artist. Would definitely order from him again.

For Black wrought iron art to secure to beige brick wall.5.0Hans Early-Nelson with Primitive Precision Metalcraft was absolutely incredible! He took my vision from the early stages and crafted it into the most perfect work of art for the front of my home. Hans was wonderfully easy to work with! He was receptive to suggestions and changes to bring my vision to life-- Even down to the details of how to ship this large piece from MN to CO. He made this process so much fun and kept me updated with photos throughout. I will definitely refer him to everyone I know and will be using him in the future for more art pieces to accent my home!! Thank you Hans!

The piece is more than a functional piece, it's a work of art. He was timely, reasonably priced, and very good at working with me. Thank you so much!
